"Crush on You" is a song by British dubstep trio Nero that appears on their debut studio album, Welcome Reality. It was released as the fifth single from the album on 13 October 2011. The song peaked at number 37 on the UK Singles Chart and number 7 on the UK Dance Chart. It heavily samples and features lyrics from The Jets' song "Crush on You".

A music video to accompany the release of "Crush on You" was uploaded to YouTube on 30 September 2011 at a total length of three minutes and fourteen seconds. It is an homage to the 1977 Japanese film, House, which had been re-released in the United States in 2009 and found a wider audience. Much of the iconography of the music video is taken directly from the film.

The video begins with scenes of a teenage schoolboy romancing four teenage schoolgirls on what is the old Brunel University Runnymede campus in Egham. The four girls are then seen together singing along to a karaoke track of the song in a dorm room followed by a scene where they, along with other girls, dance in a circle in a field while wearing white nightgowns.

The video then takes a darker tone, as lightning strikes the dormitory and the four girls writhe on the floor. The next few scenes show the girls as crying, disoriented and even possessed (one of the girls' eyes turn red) and scenes of the girls being romanced by the boy are interspersed with scenes of him running through the school grounds, looking over his shoulder.

The girls are then shown waking up in the field, looking disoriented and frightened and running off. As the video continues, it is revealed that the girls cast a spell on the boy in front of a love shrine in the dorm room and after dancing in the field. The girls are also seen terrorizing the boy in a cemetery in a later scene.
